OK, this may be a bit OT, but I would like to know how to best insure vintage and/or valuable instruments. I am aware of a few options but want an idea how others do it. And what do you do when traveling or working with valuable instruments where homeowners or a rider might not cover theft or loss. You folks who are pros or just prolific must have a lot of guitars around and must have some kind of protection. Any thoughts to share? |

I have a 1 mill$ liability policy that covers clients guitars or accidents in the shop. if you are talking your own vintage instruments I would insure each individually based on book value +10% you will need a written estimate from an appraiser to do this. |
